Hi there,

a long-standing issue with our mirror of svn.zope.org are the absolute URLs of externals: they require the repository to be available on a given URL.
I propose to use relative URLs for externals. I guess a complete update isn't necessary, but I'd like to improve the situation and start using them from now on. Maybe we should also put a commit hook in place as a safety belt?
However, this requires Subversion 1.5 which we are using on the server already, but I don't know whether we assume clients are 1.5 or higher. I certainly still use a SVN 1.4.x client, being on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (released just last year). I don't think SVN 1.5 is common enough yet to make such a move possible.
you still can use 1.4 clients an a 1.5 server I think..
I don't think such clients will be able to grok newer features (such as the proposed relative externals).
